When microbial control methods are used, microbes are destroyed at a constant rate; there is no instantaneous death of all the microbes present. that microbial death rate is influenced by all of the following factors except

toxins produced by the microbe

Explanation:

The microbial mortality rate is influenced by the following factors:

protein denaturation: chemical and physical agents are capable of eliminating the protein's functional capacity by disrupting its tertiary structure; membrane or cell wall disruption: the ability of some substances to modify the physical and chemical properties of the membrane, impairing its function, destroying or inhibiting bacterial growth; removal of free sulfhydryl groups: oxidizing agents and heavy metals interfere with cellular metabolism; Chemical antagonism: Occurs when a chemical affinity antagonist combines with an enzyme of a particular microorganism, preventing the development of the appropriate reaction.

The toxins produced by microbes do not influence the microbial mortality rate, but have a strong influence on the status of an infection.

It depends on the surface of the levels. the rougher the surface, the greater is the frictional force. for rougher surfaces, you would need to exert greater force to move the object. the concept is that, you must overcome the frictional force in order to bring the object into motion. this is the reason why we add lubricants to the joints so they could easily move. this answer was on
